The exact same people that hated on c0m on at the start of EG's run are hating on him on LEV. We'll see

I'm not gonna stand for the kiNgg and C0m slander

FNC stat padding against GX, M8, and KOI is gonna give their fans so much hope, just for them to lose to Foot next week and come crashing back down

That's three teams

How are we answering KC after their last 2 games? N4rrate is all they have

Anyone who can answer this question will receive a cash prize.

Top 3 in FreeMEA doesn't guarantee they'll make it out of groups at LAN

LOUD alone has consistently outperformed the entire population of Turkey

FNC are mid, beating them means nothing. I don't like C9, no one does, so I'm not sure where you dreamed that up

If FUT are emea's best, then I fear for the future of the region. They might never win a trophy again

Brother you have a Heretics flair. You're a fan of the fortnite team that bombed out of Madrid. Who is taking TH seriously?

Americas are the most dominant and APAC is second. EU was a top region in the past, but they've looked weak recently and have had no teams in the top 3 at the last two events.

Who's gonna save EU? N4rrate can't do it alone. Maybe they should find some more NA tier 2 talents

Agreed, JohnQT also clears EU. Africa >>>> EU

EU is so lucky to have N4RRATE

More like strong toddler vs coughing baby. FNC are still mid, M8 are just bad

What sport isn't genetics based?

Ravens
big truss

EMEA banger is an oxymoron

EG's champs win got them more than Fraud-In and Tokyo combined

What's hard to understand? People are fans of the players, regardless of what org they're signed to

"No bo5" just admit you didn't watch the games after all the EU teams got eliminated

Saying this with a Bleed flair is so bold

I'd jump off the FNC ship too with how they've been playing. Can't even blame you for bandwagoning,

EU so bad he has to flex pacific teams. It's dire

I speak Spanish and while I found that I can actually read Portugese decently well, I can't understand it all when it's spoken by native speakers. I think a lot of it comes down to the accent, because Sadhaak's portugese is a lot easier for me to understand

Here they are winning in the most recent scrimbux I could find. But I don't think scrims are that important

So EU's best team is 6th in the world by your estimation...

That's still a zero team region

TH is EU's best team and they got 8th at madrid. It's never been more over for the region

Same reason a lot of Mexicans/South Americans hate the Spanish. Not sure how brazilians feel about portugal

So much better than last year they went from winning events to not making it out of groups

I agree besides EG

You can watch the FUT BBL game if you want, but I'd rather spend my time doing anything else

It's crazy how many horrible matches can be arranged with EU's team. Any combination of BBL, KOI, TL, GentleMates, FUT, or Giants is a guaranteed snoozefest

Watching EMEA after Madrid is like watching GC after SR lost in challengers qualifiers. The spell is broken and now I realize I'm just watching tier 3 gameplay

You must never have watched Boaster in vct

d0nk

That's a lot of words to say "frauds carried by prime yay"

You didn't answer the question. NRG got the unquestioned top 2 players from EG and brought them down to their level. So what does that make them?

If C0M managed to win Champs with Demon1 and Ethan, but the NRG core can't even make Lan, what does that make them? Uber-frauds?

Americas passed EU as soon as they won their second champs. Now Americas passed EU's trophy count as well (obviously Fluke-In isn't being counted)

EG made 10 times as much from winning champs as FNC did from winning Fraud-In

How did EMEA fans manage to convince people Lock-In wasn't a joke of a tournament? It was a pre-season, single-elimination, no-group stage, randomly seeded show match with a prizepool slightly larger than a Knights weekly tournament. And they want to pretend this "trophy" should be valued the same as Champs? It's embarrassing

4 trophies and a 5 pack of mickey mouse ears from Lock-In for all of FNC to wear

4 trophies and one lock-in mickey mouse souvenir T-shirt

Ethan made it just as close to Madrid as Botster. And NRG had to actually face talented teams

Sentinels. Africa is a one team region, but EU has 0

NA hasn't been in an elimination match at Madrid yet. What are you talking about? Did you forget that awful EU teams are the ones getting eliminated

Sure. Add Africa to the ever-expanding list of regions better than Europe

I agree that teams will improve as the year goes on, but the original commenter said "these teams are clearly better" than last year's, which I don't think is accurate.
